Audience & Market Development

Reach, retain and broaden your audience — including creators developing their own market.

The challenge

Programmes can reach the same groups repeatedly while new audiences face barriers and creators struggle to identify opportunities.

Why it happens

  • Limited understanding of audiences and barriers
  • Fragmented communication channels
  • Unclear markets for a creator or programme

How we work

  1. Step 1

    Use existing evidence and conversations in an Audience Development Scan.

  2. Step 2

    Identify audience segments and barriers.

  3. Step 3

    Develop a visibility and channel plan.

  4. Step 4

    For artists, connect profile, audience and opportunities in an Artist Growth Strategy.
